use a stronger wire for longer antennas...the gauge may not be as important as the strength if you string it outside.
It is. Grounding your shortwave radio is important for a couple reasons: Many antennas that are used on shortwave radio perform correctly ( or better ) when a ground is established. ( Marconi Antenna ). Verticle antennas also use a ground wire as a " Counterpoise". The more radials used, the better RF resistance. Grounds can help the S/N raio as well by elminating some of the RF hash. Also, a Lightning arrestor is very important in case of a lightning strike. Good luck.
same way you'd wire a radio in any other car.
Yes. In fact, Bose offers its own "add-on" antennas for about $10 each that plug into the back of their radios. These are simple dipoles -- T-shaped wire, with the arms about 2 feet long and a longer center wire with a connector on the end. Similar antennas are available from other vendors too. Be aware that depending on when you bought the Wave radio, it may have either a standard F connector or a 1/8 inch minijack on the back for antenna connections -- make sure you get the right one. And yes, you can plug a more sophisticated indoor or outdoor antenna into the same jack. With any antenna, its effectiveness depends on where you locate it. An outdoor antenna has to be pointed in the general direction of the radio station(s) you're trying to receive for best performance. Indoor antennas are highly affected by location and position. You'll have to move them around to find the best location. With a little experimentation you should get a much stronger, cleaner signal than the built-in antenna provides.
Don't know the color of the wire but you will just have to use a test light to see what wire is hot to the radio.
Plastic wrapped around the wire is insulator. Not a conductor. That is why it is wrapped around the conductor wire.
The wire wrapped around the pole due to a force such as wind, a reaction to being pulled or pushed, or a twist in the wire causing it to spiral around the pole.
A copper wire was wrapped around an iron bar to create the first electromagnet.

Well, it CAN be wrapped either way, but because standard screws tighten when turned clockwise:if the wire is wrapped around the screw clockwise tightening the screw will pull the wire tighter around the screwif the wire is wrapped around the screw counterclockwise tightening the screw will push the wire away from the screw making it loose and maybe even popping the wire out from under the screwSo, if you want the wire to stay secure on the screw only wrap it clockwise!
Dipole antennas and monopole antennas are examples of antennas that are essentially a length of wire or metal. These antennas are simple in design and are effective for various communication applications.

It creates a magnet and magnetism.
When an electric wire is wrapped around a nail and connected to a power source, it creates an electromagnet. The current flowing through the wire generates a magnetic field, causing the nail to become magnetized. This setup is commonly used in electromagnets and various electrical devices.

A wire-wrapped core often refers to an inductor, where a wire is wrapped around a core material such as iron or ferrite. This configuration helps to create a magnetic field and inductance, commonly used in electronic circuits for filtering and energy storage.
